Latest Updates on Criminal Law During Covid19 In UAE
The ongoing epidemic of COVID-19 has led to many changes in the way we work, meet, and connect with society. The framework of criminal justice is no different from other sectors, and various laws and regulations have been put in place to prevent physical contact and to protect powerless people during the epidemic.We have outlined some of the most important changes below, but keep in mind that clinical advice and relevant legislation are rapidly evolving, both at the government and national levels. This data is accurate for the hour you created it, but please contact our leading best Criminal lawyers in Dubai for the latest updates on the law.
The first step taken by the criminal courts during the closure was the temporary suspension of all criminal cases in all cases where people were bailed out and postponed to 16 April 2020. However, the cases in which the suspects were arrested by the court will be heard soon.
In addition, the government issued Cabinet provisions and decisions in which, anyone who intentionally spreading coronavirus or neglected to report a suspected or positive Covid-19 case would face severe penalties and imprisonment, experts warned as they stepped up measures to curb the epidemic.
For deliberately spreading the contamination, the penalty is five years imprisonment and a fine of at least Dh50,000 and not more than Dh100,000. By default, the offender will be sentenced to three years in prison or fined up to Dh10,000.
In addition, dissemination of false information about COVID-19 will also be penalized under the law. Therefore, sending, commenting or sending messages, data or images about Covid-19 patients and their families via web-based social media, whether the object is intended to promote or prosper, will be considered a security attack and defamation.
In addition, spreading fake information about COVID-19 will also be punishable under the law. Therefore, posting, remarking or coursing messages, data or pictures with respect to Covid-19 patients and their families via web-based networking media, regardless of whether the substance is intended to prompt or for their prosperity, will be viewed as attack of protection and maligning.
According to Article 24 of the Cyber Crime Law, those found to be using new methods to attack another person's security, which may include listening to, replicating photographs or distributing information, can be jailed for up to one year and face a fine of between Dh150,000 and Dh500,000.
The Department of Justice has confirmed that the punishments accommodated in Federal Law No. 14 of 2014 Infectious Disease Control applies to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) after being officially filed by the Ministry of Health and Community Protection for a month with a law-related communicable disease. The service has identified that the specified authorizations are designed to ensure overall health and to strengthen state efforts in the process of combating communicable diseases and preventing their spread, including coronavirus. The official stated that the offense was punishable by imprisonment or a fine of up to Dh10,000.
Should you have any questions or concerns about the length of time your case is going on or if you are likely to have an argument that could be based on a deadline or time bar, it would be best to contact any of your colleagues and record below or regular contact at Stephenson Harwood during this emergency.
